agar dila gham-e-gesu-e-ya badh jata
shab-e-firaq mein aur intishaar badh jata

jo shauq-e-jumbish-e-mizhgan-e-yar badh jata
tera maza khalish-e-nok-e-khar badh jata

jo meri chashm ke parde sharik ho jate
kamal-e-daman-e-abr-e-bahaar badh jata

watan mein hum na hue khak shukr ki ja hai
ghubar-e-khatir-e-ahl-e-dayar badh jata

dikhai kyun na mujhe aa ke garmi-e-raftar
bala se aap ki mera bukhar badh jata
